Hi all,

I just deleted an administrator (adminXXXX) account, which held a great
deal of important files in its
\documents and settings\adminXXXX\documents folder.

I assumed for some reason that I would still be able to access that folder
once the adminXXXX account was deleted seeing that I had administrator
priviledges and that none of the files in that folder were encrypted.

For some reason I cannot get back into that folder, I get an access denied
error.

Is there anything I can do to recover those files?

Thanks a million for any help

Behrak
